In Douluo Continent, my summoning of Naxi Da was exposed by the heavens.

Candice's fighting style wasn't particularly flashy, but it gave people a strong sense of security and power.

Moreover, her heroic and dashing demeanor added even more charm to her.

"Candice is as reassuring as ever; if you mess with her, you can only blame your bad luck."

Tinari nodded in agreement with Sesos, then looked at Qian Renxue and asked, "And who is this?"

"I am Xue Qinghe, the Crown Prince of the Heavenly Dou Empire."

"The Crown Prince? That's perfect. The task assigned by the Great Sage requires discussion with the local powerful figures. Let's find a place to sit down and talk."

"Let's go to Qibao Hotel then!"

Ning Rongrong also made sure to attract business for her family, and Ning Fengzhi would definitely come over once he learned of the situation.

Qian Renxue, Prince Xuexing, Tinari, and Sesos all agreed.

Upon arriving at the Qibao Hotel, Ke Lai also revealed a curious look.

"Ke Lai, you talk to this Miss Rongrong. Don't be nervous, relax."

"Yes, teacher!"

Ning Rongrong looked at Ke Lai, very curious about her, and Ke Lai also looked at Ning Rongrong.

"Hello, I'm Cole, a student at the Order of the Church."

"My name is Ning Rongrong, you can just call me Rongrong. Come on, I'll take you to eat something delicious."

Ning Rongrong held Ke Lai's hand, acting as if they were old friends.

Tina smiled; he simply wanted to improve Cole's interpersonal communication skills.

"Tinari, now you can tell me what task the Great Sage gave you."

"Sesos, don't worry. The Great Sage has asked me to cooperate with you in implementing the plan to open a branch of the Faith Academy in Tiandou City."

"Oh! Is this finally going to be finalized?"

"Yes, after all, the Sky Screen has already exposed the Order of the Church, so you must have said a lot, right?"

Sesos gave an awkward laugh.

"The great sage never said anything about keeping it a secret."

Tina then looked at Qian Renxue and Prince Xuexing.

"One of you is a prince, and the other is the crown prince; both are figures of real power. It is appropriate for me to discuss this matter with you."

"It's a good thing that the Order Academy is also opening a branch in Tiandou City. I have no objection."

Prince Xuexing made his stance clear, but Qian Renxue had to consider things more carefully.

Although she learned more from Sesos, the Church still knew very little.

So she wanted to take this opportunity to learn more.

"Mr. Tinari, I have a few more questions I'd like to ask about the Council of the Fathers. I wonder if that's alright?"

"Of course, please ask."

Is the Order of the Church just an academy?

"You could say that the Order Academy is a gathering place for scholars. Scholars from all walks of life can join the Order Academy to study as long as they pass the examination."

"Does this include aspects of martial spirit and combat?"

"Although this is just the beginning, it is certainly included. The Great Sage said that the Martial Soul system... well... is very unique."

"I don't know what your needs are, but I will try my best to meet them."

Prince Xuexing interjected, and his question was indeed insightful.

"We need official approvals and a piece of land."

"Is that all?"

"Well, we'll take care of the rest once the Great Sage arrives."

"No problem, this..."

"Uncle, this is not something we can decide; it requires Father's decision, don't you think?"

Qian Renxue interrupted Prince Xuexing and shifted the blame to Emperor Xueye, leaving him with no room for rebuttal.

"Hmph, that's true, but I believe my brother won't object."

"Mr. Tinari, I'm sorry, but this matter also requires my father's decision. Please forgive me."

Qian Renxue stood up, bowed, and apologized, giving Tina a great deal of face.

"It's alright, would you like us to go and see the emperor here?"

"No need, I will report the situation to my father. Mr. Tinari and Mr. Sesos, just wait patiently."

On the other side, Ning Rongrong and Ke Lai were also having a pleasant chat, and Ning Rongrong revealed her martial soul, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda.

"So beautiful!"

The Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda is undeniably beautiful.

"Kelei, what is your martial soul?"

"Come forth, Korianba!"

Kolei summoned Korianba, who jumped on Kolei's shoulder affectionately.

"This...this is a separated martial soul!"

Ning Rongrong was very surprised; this was the first time she had ever seen a detached martial soul like Yu Xiaogang's.

"Kolianba, say hello to Rongrong."

Kolianba jumped onto Ning Rongrong's shoulder, bounced twice, and then jumped back, which was his way of saying hello.

Ning Rongrong, knowing that Yu Xiaogang couldn't break through level 30, cautiously asked Ke Lai, "Ke Lai, can I ask about your soul power level? If you don't want to tell me, that's fine."

"It's okay. I'm not very strong. According to the classification here, I should be level 72."

"What! Level 72!"

Ning Rongrong's mouth dropped open in surprise. The girl in front of her, who was about the same age as her, was actually a Soul Saint.

Those few Soul Masters at Shrek Academy thought themselves monsters among geniuses because of their strength, while Ke Lai, who was already a Soul Saint, was still so humble and low-key.

It's true what they say: comparisons are odious.

This is also a good thing, as it has completely dispelled Ning Rongrong's fascination with Shrek Academy.

However, in reality, Ke Lai is a few years older than Ning Rongrong, after all, people in Douluo Continent mature early.

The sky then began to update again, drawing everyone's attention once more.

Aru Village is the final resting place of the Red King's descendants. The guardians of Aru Village are responsible for protecting this village until the last descendant of the Red King passes away.

This was the advice given to Candice by the previous guardian when she took over as guardian of Aru Village at the age of 8.

As Candice grew up, she upheld her duty as a guardian, protecting Aru Village. However, she also discovered that Aru Village was trapped in the past and unable to break free. She asked herself countless times if this was really the right thing to do, and ultimately she chose the answer in her heart.

She used her strength to open the door to the outside world for Aru Village, attracting caravans; however, her efforts were met with criticism from the older generation of guardians.

Faced with the older generation's criticism, Candice erupted in front of them for the first time.

"I will not let the people of Aru Village be bound by the past. If you cannot move forward, then I will protect the future of Aru Village by myself."

Candice's perseverance astounded everyone, and at the same time, her determination earned her the attention of the gods.

If you have good intentions, Candice will be your best guide in the desert; if you have bad intentions, she will become your deepest nightmare. In short, never mess with her unless you have a head harder than steel.

Although the sky screen doesn't display many words, it still vividly portrays Candice as a resolute guardian.
